This month's episode features a conversation with Ian Aird, CEO of English Australia, and Jodie Gray, the Chief Executive of English UK. Both are leading important advocacy efforts on behalf of ELT providers in their respective countries, and each has an important perspective to share on the challenges facing the sector today.
